#082 -- THE RAIN WILL WASH US AWAY INSIDIOUS FRUSTRATION #082
THE RAIN WILL WASH US AWAY

I am back in town
What's this feeling I'm around
It was not the same
As it was before

Do you feel the cold air thrive
Can you see the smoke collide
With the withering of our lives
In the distance

And I can hear you breathe
Despite all of the sounds
And the clanking in the distance
Of old memories gone
And a town that once was living
Is buried underground
And here now we stand
In the dissonance

Let the clouds roll on in
Let this feeling surround
Hear the thunder in the distance begin
Let the rain come on down
And allow our souls to feel sound
Because the rain will wash us away

Drenched from above
Cleansing all the sweat of grief
Forget all your homes
Let this begin

Bother is not the word
Relieving us of our hurt
It was once like the old times
Playing in mud

And I can feel your pain
Could you feel mine
It feels like it has left us
Do you feel it too
Forget all about them
Forgive all of their words
Let us now soak in this moment
In all harmony

Let the clouds roll on in
Let this feeling surround
Hear the thunder in the distance begin
Let the rain come on down
And allow our souls to feel sound
Because the rain will wash us away

Let the wind blow with force
And let the rivers run their course
See the trees in the distance sway again
Let this rain come on down
And let this love come around
Because the rain will wash all the pain away

All the pain
Let it fade away
All the pain
Shall it fade today
